command question

From

Hi,

I've installed the Cygwin software in order to run the PostgreSQL database
on Windows XP, but I can´t find the "initdb" and others Cygwin commands.
I´ve installed the Cygutils software too.

Any help would be appreciated.

Best Regards,

Adolfo.

Hi,

In your start-menu you should have a Cygwin entry that allows you to start cygwin / a bash shell. (I'm not sure what
theexact title is of the start-menu entry). 

Start this, and all cygwin commands should be available.

They are located in c:\cygwin\bin;c:\cygwin\usr\bin and some other locations inside c:\cygwin. (Or different drive, if
youinstalled differently.) Normally they aren't in your PATH, until you start the bash shell. 

Hope this helps,
